Timba / Rumba Musicality - Somos Cubanos by Los Van Van

This class is a bit crazy. It’s a follow-along class, so you can do it with us from the beginning to the end. We wanted to introduce you to dancing to accents and patterns in music. One of the most important elements during your dancing adventure is understanding the music and in the context of Cuban music - understanding and dancing around clave. This Los Van Van song uses clave as a base for the accents and melody and we tried to show can you can understand and interpret it. We know it’s not an easy sequence, but we encourage you to give it a go :) The song we are dancing to: Los Van Van - Somos Cubanos Table of contents / video index: 0:00 Intro 0:18 About this class 3:02 Part 1 (from rumba basic) 6:12 Part 1 with music 7:20 Part 2 (from body drop and shake) 14:42 Two parts with music 15:32 Part 3 (dancing with clave) 23:41 Three parts with music 25:00 Part 4 (second clave section) 26:47 Four parts with music 28:06 The whole sequence with music - front camera 29:58 The last section 33:25 The whole sequence with music - back camera 35:51 The whole sequence with music again :) 37:54 Just Anna 39:41 Just Michal 41:24 Summary / Outro -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUBSCRIBE TO OUR CHANNEL find us on other social media, become our patreon: Patreon link: Instagram: Facebook: Michal’s Spotify: Website:
